Edmonton Artificial Turf

Artificial Turf Edmonton

Clean seams, solid base, and low upkeep. Professional installation in Edmonton and area.

We focus on real-look turf with heavy emphasis on proper base excavation and smart drainage so water never pools against the house. The artificial turf Edmonton properties need is built on that foundation. We install synthetic turf across Edmonton, St. Albert, Spruce Grove, and Sherwood Park for low-maintenance lawns that stay clean and usable year-round.

We handle site preparation, base work, and drainage so your turf looks natural and performs properly. With more than eight years of local experience, we install Artificial Turf that stays level, drains efficiently, and remains comfortable underfoot.

Artificial Turf works well in backyards, side yards, play areas, and problem spots where natural grass struggles. It reduces watering and mowing while keeping your yard clean and usable in every season.

Where Turf Works Best

Artificial Turf Applications in Edmonton

  • Residential Backyards and Side Yards

  • Low‑Maintenance Front Yards
  • Balconies and Small Urban Spaces
  • Putting Greens and Specialty Areas

How We Build the Base for Artificial Turf

A professional install includes stripping organics and replacing them with a compacted gravel base. We use a minimum of 4–6 inches so drainage stays stable. We use non-woven geotextile fabric between the soil and the gravel so Edmonton’s heavy clay doesn’t swallow the base over time. We excavate, lay fabric and gravel, compact in lifts with a plate compactor, and grade so water runs away from the house. Turf gets secured with 6" galvanized nails every 4–6" along edges and seams.

Turf & Infill Options

Turf Options and Infill for Edmonton's Climate

We install turf with realistic color blends and blade heights that suit how the space is used: polyethylene-based fibres that stay flexible in sub-zero temperatures so the backing doesn’t become brittle or crack during Edmonton’s freeze-thaw cycles. Shorter pile works well for high-traffic areas and pet runs; taller blades give a softer look for full backyards. Seams are aligned so the grain runs the same direction and the finish stays consistent.

Infill helps the blades stand up and adds weight to keep the turf stable. We use clean silica sand for a natural feel and solid drainage. Synthetic turf can get hot in direct summer sun. We can use cooling infill technologies (such as T-Cool) to lower surface temperatures. For pet areas we use antimicrobial infill and turf with perforated backing so animal waste drains quickly and odours are minimized.

After Installation

What to Expect After Turf Installation

Once turf is installed, you can use the space right away. We recommend light brushing to keep the blades upright, rinsing pet areas as needed, and removing leaves or debris so drainage stays clear. We also walk the site with you to review seams, edges, and proper care.

Pricing

How Much Does Artificial Turf Cost in Edmonton?

Artificial turf in Edmonton costs $12 to $18 per square foot installed, including excavation, base work, infill, and turf. Final cost depends on yard size, site access, and whether we are removing existing lawn first.

  • Small yard (200 sq ft, e.g. 10x20 side yard or dog run): $2,400 to $3,600
  • Medium yard (400 sq ft, e.g. 20x20 backyard): $4,800 to $7,200

St. Albert

Artificial Turf in St. Albert

We install artificial turf throughout St. Albert in neighbourhoods like Erin Ridge, Jensen Lakes, Braeside, Lacombe Park, Deer Ridge, and Riverside. St. Albert yards with heavy clay soil benefit most from our deep gravel base approach. We excavate the clay, lay geotextile fabric, and compact a 4-6 inch gravel base before turf goes down so drainage stays reliable through freeze-thaw cycles.
